FAQs
What are the most common reasons a kitchen faucet starts leaking in Kodak homes?
In Kodak, hard-water mineral buildup, worn-out rubber washers or O-rings, and corroded valve seats are the leading culprits. Frequent temperature swings—common with our local well-water systems—can also stress metal parts and seals. Over-tightening the handle or using low-quality replacement parts during DIY fixes often aggravates the issue, causing drips to come back within weeks.
How do I know whether my faucet needs repair or a full replacement?
A repair is usually sufficient if the faucet body is in good shape and the leak is coming from a single worn component such as a cartridge or O-ring. However, consider full replacement when the fixture is more than 10–15 years old, shows visible corrosion, has multiple simultaneous leaks, or no longer matches your kitchen’s style or water-efficiency goals. During our service call, we inspect the faucet, check water pressure, and give you a repair-vs-replace cost comparison so you can make an informed decision.
What types of replacement faucets and fixtures do you install?
We stock and install all major brands—including Moen, Delta, Kohler, and American Standard—along with lead-free, ADA-compliant, and WaterSense-certified models. Choose from pull-down sprayers, touchless operation, bridge faucets, and commercial-style goosenecks. If you need matching soap dispensers, water filtration taps, or instant-hot dispensers, we can integrate those during the same visit to give your Kodak kitchen a coordinated look.
How long does a typical faucet replacement take, and will my kitchen be out of service?
Most replacements in the Kodak area take 60–90 minutes once we’re on site. We shut off only the sink’s supply lines, so the rest of your home’s water stays on. Your kitchen sink will be usable as soon as we finish pressure-testing and flushing the new faucet—usually before we leave your driveway.
What is the average cost for repairing versus replacing a leaky kitchen faucet?
Repair costs generally range from $95 to $180, covering a service call, minor parts, and labor. Full replacements start around $275 for standard fixtures and can exceed $650 for premium touchless or commercial-grade models. We provide upfront, flat-rate pricing, including removal, disposal of the old faucet, new supply lines, and any required mounting hardware.
Do you offer warranties and post-installation support?
Yes. All repairs come with a 1-year labor warranty, and new faucets retain the manufacturer’s product warranty—often lifetime on cartridges and finishes. If you experience drips, low flow, or handle stiffness within the warranty period, call us and we’ll return to your Kodak home at no charge to correct the issue. We also leave you with maintenance tips to maximize the faucet’s lifespan and efficiency.
